Surf Report Comments

Tuesday 10 / 04 / 22

Reporter: : T. Strange

6:35 am: Brisk NNE winds this morning so choppy surf. The surf is on the increase as the local buoy ticks up offshore. Too dark to see the surf early-early, We are going to call it 2-3 feet for your early morning call. On the local buoy the early wave height reading is 5.9 feet at7 seconds, up from yesterdays 4.3 feet at 6 seconds. The water temperature and local wind measurements at The Pier are here and A more ‘up to the minute’ timeline of our local wind is on The Surf Station Weather Station. : Here is a view of the live surf this morning surf via our north side pier cam

7:25 am: Early morning photos are up in box #1 with the waves not looking as we thought it would in our before daylight call @ 6:35 am. Not going to down the size as the increase is likely coming. The buoy heights are up from yesterday and the wind is strong NNE. Choppy, drifty, N/NE windswell surf sweeping down the beach . More beach erosion likely today around high tide. You can see a few surfers heading to the ocean in a few of the photos. Drifty, ridable, but junky and choppy overall….

10:45 am: Mid to late morning photos are up in box #2 and you can see it’s super choppy and extra drifty. The swell looks bigger with the super strong wind….

5:00 pm: Afternoon photos are up in box #3 and you can see it’s choppy out of the north on this Tuesday afternoon. Messy and choppy but surfable. Get ready to drift if you paddle out for the after work session…

New in the Shop: We have a full size run of Roxy full suits and booties, get ahold of this limited supply while it lasts! Shop here.

Note: Dean is without power so his surf forecast is NOT updated. Once he gets power, he can update.

Here is the overview wind map, and here is the Windi Map centered on St. Augustine. Click.on the link, then zoom out to see wind speed/direction and the fetch that generates the waves we ride. Here is the weekly weather forecast for St.Augustine Beach, and the 5 day tropical weather outlook. Dean’s 7-Day Surf Forecast is calling for the wind to clock offshore with size dropping rather quickly after Ian depart to the north.

Blue Whales!

Another day of almost no wind. We had to put our buns of steel to work today, peddling in the hotness of California’s Indian summer. We were traveling at about 2 miles per hour. Pure peddle power. I still can’t believe how hot it was. I didn’t even touch my wetsuit. It was all worth…

Cory and Shea Lopez at home

From ESPN.com By Jon Coen It wasn’t a perfect hurricane season, but by Florida standards, it was pretty good. The Atlantic saw an above-average year. And while the Sunshine State usually sees more overhead stacks of plywood than overhead waves, it was spared any landfalling storms. Surfers mostly just sucked down the sweet nectar of…
